Separate Schools Tor white and Black
children.

fE4t- .Es-0
ATLANTA, Ga, Aug. THE Glenn bill,
making it penal to educate white and
black children in the same school, was
passed by the house by a vote of 124 to 2
the two nays being the colored members,
Messrs. Crawford of Mcintosh and VIII
son of Camden, The galleries and lob.
bies were filed by a fashionable audience
to listen to the debate. Mr.. Glenn, the
author Of the bill, moved about with a
boquet which had been presented to him
by his lady admirers. In his speech in
advocacy of the bill. he insisted that to
educate together meant ultimate inter
marriage, and held that the blacks were
as much protected against white instrpc.
ton as the whites were against the black.
The main Interest in the debate, how
ever, conferred in the speeches of the two
colored members who alone opposed the
bill. Mr.. Wilson said: schools do MOI
mean ~intermarriage. God forbid that ii
should. The words that l utter, as you
all well know, come from an uneducated
negro, but ] am here to represent my peo-
pie and am conscientious in all l say and
do, and I3disclaim the hunger and thirst
of intermarriage that has b.en attributed
to our race. 1T makes no difference what
the people and the press say in reference
to the matter. I make the assertion. In
closing / ask you to vote intelli-
gently on this bill and give us our
rights.
Mr.. Crawford, of Mcintosh, then arose
and said; God forbid that l, as a rep.
resentative OF Mcintosh, should champ
ion such a aus as cohabitation, for it
would be the most horrible thing that
could ever occur.n In speaking of the ig-
norance of the darkies. he said that Geor-
gia was responsible to a great extent for
the ignorance of the negro. Crawford's
arguments We're forcibie. but owing to
the limitof time he was compelled to cut
his speech short.

Brothers Who Have Grown Rich and
FAmous In the Hotel business.
1.-The Willards" in Washington are
three Vermont brothers, Joseph. Henry
and Caleb, named in order of their
ages. The latter is proprietor of the
Ebbitt, worth one or two millions.
Henry owns much property and bonds.
With Joseph, the elder, he is joint
owner of the Willard hotel. which
they kept for years. His estate is away
up in the millions and growing. Joseph
Is the richer rs well as the elder OF
the three, and is said to spend much OF
his time cutting coupons from bonds.
He is in no active business. He Is a
widower. and one son is the only heir.
not a good lover he is a good hater.
He has little to do with mankind in
general, albeit he has the appearance
Of a mildmannered. benevolent-minded
gentleman of sixty-tive years. He and
Caleb have not spoken for years.
Joseph does the hating and Caleb the

strip Of twelve feet interrupts his con-

has tried every meant to buy it. Joseph
holds it solely to spite his brother. 1t
is occupied by q tenantless one-story
structure. Not great while ago a
suave. business-like gentleman called
upon Joseph and stated that he
was looking for location to establish
a candy mandatory. He was i'm
pressed with the + street location. and
wanted to know if it was in the market.
Joseph Willard replied that he would

visitor asked the terms. Looking up
and catching the business mans eye.
he said: 'My price is $500. .0OJ. You

that Joseph has so fixed it in his will

persons have dealings with him. Gen.
eral Boynton has his confidence and is
